The last Bronco game of the regular season happens on Saturday.

If they pull out a win against the New Mexico State Aggies, the Broncos will be the WAC champions.

They also need to come out on top in order to have a chance at a BCS bowl game.

Here is everything you need to know if you plan to attend or watch Saturday's big game.

Game kickoff is at 1:00 p.m. (MST).

The game will be televised on KTVB, and there are still tickets available.

Tickets to the game range in price from $30 to $49 for adults.

Parking

The Bronco Stadium parking lot will open at 8:00 a.m. for reserved parking and tailgating.

Police officers will be on patrol looking for illegally parked vehicles and those that pose a safety hazard.

Be sure not to block sidewalks, crosswalks and fire hydrants.

Also, don't park too close to intersections or stop signs.

Parking will not be permitted at Julia Davis Park.

Shuttles

To avoid parking hassles and traffic, consider parking downtown and taking a shuttle to the stadium.

Free shuttles will be available to take you to and from the game from certain locations around downtown Boise.

A shuttle will pick fans up and drop them off at the following locations:

  • 8th and Main
  • 8th and Broad
  • Grove and 6th

The shuttle will be waiting at the east side of the stadium following the game to bring fans back to where they were picked up.

The shuttle runs every 15 minutes for two hours prior to BSU football games and will run immediately after the game for one hour.

What to wear

It will be rather chilly outside Saturday.

Our meteorologists are predicting a high of 33 degrees, and a low of 19.

So bundle up, but fans are still urged to fill the stands with orange.

For Saturday's WAC championship game, officials want fans to "orange out" the stadium.

Senior day

The five seniors Broncos will be introduced to fans prior to the game.

Kyle Wilson, Garcia Day, Andy Silsby, Michael Choate, and Richie Brockel will be honored in a special ceremony along with their parents about five minutes before kickoff.

Circle Walk of Champions

A Circle Walk of Champions and pre-game pep rally will get Bronco fans in game-mode.

The walk will begin at 10:00 a.m. with the Keith Stein Blue Thunder Marching Band leading the way.

The football team will follow.

They will march from the Student Union Building into the east side stadium parking lot.

Fans who want to join in the fun can line up along Bronco Circle on the Allen Noble Hall of Fame Plaza.

WAC Championship trophy presentation

If the Broncos come out on top, a trophy presentation will happen on the field following the game.

The gates will open and fans will be invited onto the blue to help the team celebrate a WAC championship win.
